Country Level Events formed part of the Strategic Capacity Development Component delivered by the UK Built Environment Advisory Group (UKBEAG) in collaboration with UN Habitat, in support of the FCDO Global Future Cities Programme. Country level events programmes were developed in collaboration with the FCDO, UN Habitat, the Delivery Partner and City Stakeholders and were informed by the findings of the Capacity Needs Assessment that were undertaken by City Stakeholders earlier in the programme.
The aim of these events was to build upon the momentum of the programme and to draw on the experience of a range of subject matter experts to consider some of the issues to be addressed as the projects move from design to implementation.
